Nashville SC has released its schedule for the 2026 Major League Soccer regular season.
Nashville, which finished sixth in the Eastern Conference and reached the playoffs in 2025, will host the New England Revolution at Geodis Park on Feb. 21 (7:30 p.m. CT) in their 2026 MLS season opener. The Boys in Gold will conclude the regular season with a Decision Day game at FC Cincinnati on Nov. 7 (3 p.m.).
Nashville's season could begin as early as Feb. 3 with the CONCACAF Champions Cup, which it qualified for by winning this season's U.S. Open Cup. The draw for the CCC is scheduled for Dec. 9 with first-round matches taking place in February.
Nashville will face every other team in the Eastern Conference home and away, including games against Inter Miami, which it lost to in the first round of the playoffs this season. NSC will host Lionel Messi and Miami on Aug. 15 and travel to Florida on Sept. 12.
In addition, Nashville has six games against Western Conference opponents, including a rematch of the U.S. Open Cup final against Austin FC at Q2 Stadium on Oct. 10. Nashville beat Austin 2-1 in the final to win its first-ever trophy.
Nashville is also scheduled to compete in the Leagues Cup, though that tournament's dates have not yet been announced.
All MLS games will be on Apple TV, and an additional four games will be televised nationally. FS1 will broadcast Nashville's March 14 game at the Columbus Crew and May 9 game against DC United, while FOX will broadcast its March 21 game vs. Orlando City and July 17 game vs. Atlanta United.
The 2026 MLS season is the final season before the league moves to a European-style, fall-spring calendar starting in July 2027. There will be an abbreviated 14-game season in early 2027 before the 2027-28 season begins.
Due to the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico, MLS will pause its season from May 25-July 16.
